Watches - another OCD problem

[goosehd]

@Bill-C So then the issue becomes how much do you enjoy the watch and want to keep it?

The used prices on eBay will help you make a decision if the £200 is worth putting into the watch and fixing it. If you don’t like the watch and the price of a used watch is close to that amount, the decision is easy.

You’ll take a pretty big hit if you want to sell the watch (unfixed) on any market and if you misrepresent it in a sale a big hit to your reputation.

Hi @goosehd - I hardly wear it nowadays, so I’m erring on the side of eBaying it with full disclosure about the need for repair/full service - appreciate your advice

This years budget for things that I don't necessarily need has now officialy been spend.

@Giles wow, I felt his joy in my soul just watching this..

[mclaincausey]

All the feels on that one.

[IrishHeart]

Wonderful

I liked the experts reaction when he fell the first time "get the fuck up we aren't done yet"

[mclaincausey]

It’s got to feel so good to floor this humble seeming gent with that information.

@Molle got any king seiko? I’ve got the itch for a first model J14102…

[Molle]

@68degreesorless only two at the moment (plus a few King Quartz from the 70s when the King Seiko name was not used).

A vintage 449990 from the early 60s and the SJE083 (re-issue from 2020).

@Giles said in Watches - another OCD problem:

That one is so nice.

This one is related, but not the same type of emotions involved...

[68degreesorless]

@Molle very nice - those are beauts!

I think I gotta have the gold version and that big 'king seiko' text up top

[Molle]

@68degreesorless that is a great one. Go for it!

Found an Omega AD a few days ago and tried these on. Really digging the Speedy

[ddtrash]

The black/black seamaster is a favourite of mine, very well executed. One of these watches that is difficult to photograph and looks better in person.

[Cole]

@ddtrash But it will most likely a nightmare to read in bad lighting conditions.

[Anesthetist]

@Cole well done!!

[Anesthetist]

@Cole they do have lume tho

[Cole]

@Anesthetist I know, but there are a lot of twilight scenarios (no, not the greasy vampire ones) where the lume does not kick in enough to make a black / black or black / grey watch readable.

My Seiko Shikamaru is a nightmare, even though I expect Omega to use a better lume on a 10 to 15x as expensive watch.

On the toppic of the Seamaster PO, that thing realy is a beauty. It wasn't the most reasonable decision to buy that beast, but I will certainly not regret it.
